Letter from LP to F.C. Whitmore, Dean, The Pennsylvania State College RE: Replies that he didn't find much to comment on in his paper, but he has a few, and says he is sending a copy of this letter to Dr. Lamb. Suggests Whitmore might want to change his discussion at the top of page 5, talks about some of the densities, molar volumes, covalent bonds and how he would write a different discussion on the possible types of resonance, but was very pleased to see the manuscript overall.
